I like classic video games. It's safe to say that I like them more than what's came out in the past three years, but not every classic video game remains a classic. I've noticed that some of these games just don't get better with age. One great example is Imagic's Microsurgeon for the Intellivision. I was blown away by the level of detail in this game as early as ten years ago, but now, the great graphics just can't hide the mercilessly slow and clumsy gameplay. It takes a week to move your microsurgeon from the mouth of its patient to the stomach, and it's annoyingly difficult to select cures for the various ailments you'll encounter. The concept is great, and it may have reached its full potential later on a more powerful system, but it was madness to expect technology from the 1970's to handle a game so complex and graphically demanding.
